Which Courses to Take?

4A: ECE 462 Electrical Distribution Systems (starting S13)This course provides the students an understanding of the operation, analysis and design of electric power distribution systems, starting with estimation of the loads on the network to the detail design of the distribution system networks. The primary objective of the course is to provide students with the skills to understand the analytical and design methods and modern tools for solution of problems associated with electric distribution system engineering.

ECE 463 Design and Applications of Power Electronic Converters This course is an introduction to power electronics. It covers the principles of power conditioning, waveform quality, input and output filter design, switching characteristics and power losses of power semiconductor devices, analysis, design, control and applications of power electronic converters, and computer simulation of power electronic circuits. Practical aspects of converter design such as thermal management, snubber design, series/parallel connection of switches, and gate/base drive circuits will also be discussed.

Which Courses to Take?

4B: ECE 464 High Voltage Engineering and Power System Protection The course provides the fundamentals concepts of generation and measurements of high voltage ac, dc, and impulses. Briefly introduces the students to basic conduction and breakdown mechanisms of insulating materials. The scope of this course also includes understanding the basic protection system, studying the principles for protecting different elements and studying different technologies used in designing protective relays. Exposure to several state-of-art high voltage testing techniques of power system components will ensure that students have knowledge of the industrial solutions to the management of the problems associated with overvoltage and the protection mechanisms used.

ECE 467 Power System Analysis, Operations and Markets This course provides a basic understanding of the main issues relevant to the operation, analysis and management of power grids, and gives an introduction to the functioning of electricity markets. The course covers the following main technical and economic issues relevant to system operators, utilities and analysts: power system economic operations; short-term operation of power systems; power flow; introduction to optimal power flows; overview of electricity markets; fault calculations; and basic concepts in power system stability and control.
